Xamarin VS Roslyn

You can migrate your app to .NET 6 or .NET 7 for Android now - https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android/wiki/Migrating-Xamarin.Android-Applications-to-.NET-6

My grad learned basic Android dev in like a week, and proceeded to smash it out better and faster than the original. Jetpack Compose is fantastic and simply unavailable in Xamarin.

Xamarin.Android: Licencia MIT

I read that Broadcast Receiver is no longer guarenteed to trigger on exact times. Which doesn't really matter for my purpose, but seemed to me to be an indication that this wasn't quite what I was looking for.

You can build it yourself or download a package from https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android.

MAUI on Android uses: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android

Google updated their .xml file in a way our code couldn't handle: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android/issues/6965

.NET is a little smarter about switch code generation these days: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/pull/66081

Recently, while creating some experimental C# source code generators (xafero/csharp-generators), I was just concatenating strings together. Like you do, you know, if things have to go very quickly. If you have a simple use case, use a formatted multi-line string or some template library like scriban. But I searched for a way to generate more and more complicated logic easily - like for example, adding raw SQL handler methods to my pre-generated DBSet-like classes for my ADO.NET experiment. You could now say: Use Roslyn and that's really fine if you look everything up in a website like SharpLab, which shows immediately the syntax tree of our C# code.

At runtime, the Case C# expressions are embedded into a function and dynamically compiled into an assembly using the Roslyn C# compiler. Then the function that contains the expression is called (e.g. CaseAvailableFunction.Availablle()). At runtime, the function provides various methods to access stored case values as well as the current input data.
